this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; I agree that this move makes perfect sense right now. I just hope he's a good student....

Re: Saints move jenkins to safety, bout time!!
MJ had some great lays at corner and in nickel last year. He almost picked Manning in the SB right before Porter did it.
I'm OK with anything that gets this guy on the field the most. He's a play-maker. |

Re: Saints move jenkins to safety, bout time!!
Well not much to say he played well at CB but his excelleration is what doomed him, he gets faster as he goes along so he would have been suspect on quick burner WRs, that said having Greer and Porter on the outsides will benefit him like it did Sharper, at FS he can just Roam & Romp all game long Patrick Robinson can hold the dime while he transitions Randal Gay can hang on to the nickle until PR is ready. I'm interested to see what will come of Roman Harpers situation, Chip Vaughn is interchangeable at S is faster and on film is a very sound tackler as a football mind if everything is equal except for speed Id go with the better coverage player

So does that mean he would play in the nickel, or does that still go to Gay? I'm thinking that Gay would still come in on nickel, which would mean that MJ's main contribution will still be on special teams, providing Sharper stays healthy.

Re: Saints move jenkins to safety, bout time!!
remember we have the predator 2.0 in patrick robinson, maybe jenkins plays a number of snaps at nickel and dime, i'm hoping he learns from sharp all year

If Jenkins is not on the field at FS this season due to Sharper's inability to be, he will be the third CB ahead of Robinson. The reps in OTA's at safety and camp allows him to learn what will eventually be his permanent position.
